Mensur Pudic is the founder of Simply Motivated. He advocates that determination is the fundamental value which has led him through adversity in his life. Mensur was born in Bosnia in 1986 and experienced war at a very young age. At age 8, as a refugee, he came to the United States with his family. He spoke no English and didn’t have any idea what life would be like an ocean away from the only home he had ever known. Over the years, he was able to pursue and experience the “American Dream” through hard work and determination.
